EXETER TWP., Pa. - Santander Bank is preparing to consolidate one of its Berks County branches into another.
The bank has announced plans to close its Reiffton branch at 4001 Perkiomen Avenue in Exeter Township, effective at noon on March 30, and consolidate the services it provides with Santander's Exeter branch, located about a mile away, at 4900 Perkiomen Avenue.
